Tips:

  • Use high-quality ground beef for the burgers. An 80/20 blend of chuck and sirloin is a good option.
  • Season the ground beef liberally with salt and pepper before cooking. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or smoked paprika.
  • Form the ground beef into patties that are about 1/2-inch thick. Make sure the patties are evenly shaped so that they cook evenly.
  • Cook the burgers over medium heat until they are cooked to your desired doneness. For a medium-rare burger, cook for about 3-4 minutes per side. For a medium burger, cook for about 4-5 minutes per side. For a well-done burger, cook for about 5-6 minutes per side.
  • Toast the buns before assembling the burgers. This will help to keep the buns from getting soggy.
  • Add your favorite toppings to the burgers. Some popular toppings include cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles.
  • Serve the burgers hot off the grill. Enjoy!
